Kevin & Vicki Bailey travelling in their restored 1935 Stinson Reliant SR-8C VH-UXL around Australia. It commenced March 25th with the crossing of the Nullabor, thru SA & in Victoria - attending the RAAF 90th Anniversary Pilgrimage, AAAA Annual fly-in at Echuca. Our plans are to see as much of Qld before turning left into Northern Territory and finally down the west coast of WA to home.

An exciting day for us. The engine has arrived - in beautiful condition and looks fan..bloody...tastic!

A very tense Kevin unpacked the crate to see the finished article. Apart from some modifications he will be meticulously installing the power plant on the Stinson over the next few weeks. Only 27 days to departure
